For writing reports, doing email, browsing the web, and listening to music, the Surface Go 2 is excellent. Students, teachers, and people who do office work will probably find the Surface Go 2 to be more than enough for their workloads.
It propels the Surface Go from being a PC companion to a PC replacement for a lot of people. The bigger screen and optional Intel Core m3 processor push the Surface Go 2 into favorite territory for me.

This "issue" does depend on who you are, however. That means if you struggled typing on the first Surface Go, you'll have the same issue with the Surface Go 2. There's not much Microsoft can do here, as the Surface Go 2 is small and doesn't have a lot of room for a bigger battery.īecause Surface Go 2 keeps the overall size and dimensions of the first Surface Go, Microsoft hasn't been able to increase the size of the Type Cover. As such, battery life remains much the same if only a little bit improved. Microsoft says Surface Go 2 has a bigger battery, but it's only 1WHr more than what's in the Surface Go. The other area that Microsoft has attempted to improve upon is the battery life. I was able to do most of the work I'd normally do when out and about on a Surface Go just fine, but it is nice to have an option for a more powerful processor for those that do need it. Now, I personally don't think the Intel Pentium GOLD inside the Surface Go, and Surface Go 2 is all that bad. Microsoft has also "fixed" the slow processor issue by including an option for an Intel Core M3 processor. Most people couldn't believe I was using one, and Neowin's Rich Woods even snapped this hilarious photo of me working hard on the tiny Surface Go next to our Executive Editor Daniel Rubino's huge LG Gram with a 17-inch display. You'd often find me in the press room writing up embargoes, editorials, and news articles all on a Surface Go. In fact, this is precisely what I was doing at Microsoft Ignite 2019. It's small and agile enough to carry around in or out a bag. If I needed a PC for on-the-go work that didn't require a video card, I'd pick the Surface Go. When I say I loved the first Surface Go, that's not a lie. I've been using the Surface Go 2 since it launched, and while this isn't a review, I did want to share my thoughts on the product so far and how it has quickly become my favorite Surface PC as of late.
Compatible with previous and new accessories.
The new Surface Go 2 packs a larger 10.5-inch higher resolution display, thinner bezels, more power, and storage for all your on-the-go computing tasks. $399.99 (opens in new tab) at Microsoft US (opens in new tab)
